After "Shanghai Literature" came out, Gong Ying's face was still a little red. He secretly glanced at Wu Jianye, who looked as usual, and felt both happy and disappointed in his heart.
Through this period of time together, Gong Yin was unknowingly attracted to Wu Jianye's self-confidence, humor, talent, and seriousness in work. Perhaps she had not even discovered this problem herself.
Therefore, a young man who is talented, funny, and handsome has always been extremely lethal to artistic young women. If he can still be romantic from time to time, his lethality will be as lethal as a nuclear weapon.
"I think you don't seem to like that Linda very much?" Gong Yin asked curiously.
Gong Yin saw Wu Jianye's performance just now.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "When they were traveling in Yanjing, I helped them a little, and they said they wanted to thank me every day. You also know that we are people who don't repay kindness, and they foreigners are troublesome.
What a big deal!"
Gong Ying looked at Wu Jianye suspiciously: "Really?"
"Of course!" Wu Jianye nodded firmly, and then said: "I haven't thanked you properly for this matter. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have been able to solve it until the evening."
Gong Yin said with a smile as bright as a flower: "Actually, I didn't do anything. I just told Uncle Zhao that I recently read a very good novel. In the final analysis, it is the novel you wrote that is good. Otherwise, no matter what I say,
Even Uncle Zhao would not agree to publish it in Shanghai Literature!"
Wu Jianye was sincerely grateful. In this era, there were no mobile phones. The only way to communicate with people was by writing letters, and writing a book would definitely not be clear on the phone. In other words, this paragraph
Gong Yin must have made a trip in person for his novel.
However, Wu Jianye is not a hypocritical person. He just needs to remember this gratitude and find an opportunity to repay it. He smiled and said: "It's almost noon. Let's find a place to eat first. Wait.
I’ll find a better place at night and treat you well.”
"It's okay, don't take it too seriously, I really didn't put in much effort." Gong Yin said quickly.
The two casually found a restaurant. Wu Jianye originally thought that the matter would not be resolved until the afternoon, so he made an appointment with Zhou Tao to meet in the evening. Now that the task was completed ahead of schedule, he didn't know where Zhou Tao took Xu Zhi to go shopping.
He discussed with Gong Yiyi, and the two of them came to Lianyun Road again and observed the self-employed people here.
"Brother Angkor, Sister Gong, you are here!" Xiaocui smiled unnaturally after seeing Wu Jianye and Gong Yin.
Xiaocui is the girl from the tailor shop whose business license was taken away from her before. Wu Jianye and Gong Yin often come here to experience life, and they have long been familiar with her.
"Xiao Cui, how is business today?" Gong Yin asked, sitting next to Xiao Cui with a smile.
"It's good. The season is about to change, and everyone is making more clothes!" It was obviously a good thing, but neither Wu Jianye nor Gong Yin saw much of a smile on Xiao Cui's face.
After arriving in Shanghai, due to family and personal reasons, Xiaocui was not assigned and remained unemployed at home. Later, she had no choice but to set up a stall and become self-employed.
"Xiaocui, are the people from the management committee here again?" Gong Yin asked worriedly.
Xiao Cui shook her head and said, "No." However, Xiao Cui obviously didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so she changed the subject and asked, "Brother Angkor, Sister Gong, are you here to experience life again?"
"Yes, I happened to play the role of the owner of a tailor stall in the movie. Didn't I come here to learn from you?" Gong Yin saw that Xiaocui didn't want to say anything, so she didn't continue to ask.
"What's there to learn from this? Just work for others honestly!" Xiao Cui said with a smile.
The three of them were chatting, and Wu Jianye was also observing the lives of other people around him. However, Xiaocui was obviously out of shape today and made many mistakes, which even Gong Yin could see.
Gong Yin couldn't help but asked with concern: "Xiao Cui, tell me, have you encountered any difficulties?"
The corners of Xiaocui's eyes were a little red, "Brother Angkor, Sister Gong, tell me, we self-employed people make money with our own hands, why do some people look down on us?"
Gong Yin asked anxiously: "What happened?"
Xiaocui is 25 years old this year, and she is a grown-up girl. Naturally, her family is anxious about her marriage. They asked someone to talk to a matchmaker several times, but when the other party heard that Xiaocui was a self-employed person, they immediately disagreed. It seemed that the self-employed person was such a person.
It's the same embarrassing thing.
Even Xiaocui's parents don't agree with Xiaocui becoming self-employed. Now Xiaocui can be said to have been hit by a double blow.
In fact, in this era, self-employed people do belong to a group that is looked down upon...
"Hey, what did I think it was? It turns out that's what happened!" When Wu Jianye heard this, he said nonchalantly: "Xiao Cui, you don't have to be sad. It won't take a few years for people to envy you for this kind of thing.
I regret my decision now!”
In a few years, it will be an era when all the people go to sea. At that time, there was a saying that "those who make missiles are not as good as those who sell tea eggs", which fully shows the madness for money in that era.
Of course, Wu Jianye actually disagrees with this sentence. In his heart, he will always have that idea. What kind of person should use his light and heat in what field. If the missile manufacturer really sells it
Tea eggs, that is the tragedy of this country.
"Really?" Xiaocui looked at Wu Jianye with some suspicion.
Wu Jianye nodded firmly and said, "You make money with your own hands. You don't steal or rob. There is nothing to feel inferior to. It's just those people who have no vision."
Xiaocui nodded in confusion. In fact, she didn't understand anything about Wu Jianye's words. She just saw the determined expression on Wu Jianye's face, which made her very happy.
“Thank you Angkor!”
Wu Jianye and Gong Yin didn't go anywhere for the whole afternoon. They just observed the lives of those people here. During this period, Wu Jianye also found a car repairman to help him with some work, and Gong Yin
I also learned sewing techniques with the help of Xiao Cui.
At night, when Wu Jianye saw that it was almost time, he said to Gong Yin: "It's almost time, let's go back!"
Gong Ying wiped his sweat, and then handed his handkerchief to Wu Jianye: "Wipe the oil stains on yourself first!"
After Wu Jianye took it, he smelled a faint fragrance.
In the evening, I went to the hotel to meet Zhou Tao and his Xiangjiang friend. They were definitely going to dine at the hotel, so I happened to bring Gong Yin with me to thank her for helping me today. For Wu Jianye, it was just a matter of a pair of chopsticks.
"Where are we going?" Gong Yin asked curiously when he saw that the direction Wu Jianye was walking was not the direction of Shanghai Film Studio.
"I made an appointment tonight with the friend who came to the studio to see me today. They are at Jinjiang Hotel now. Let's go eat somewhere!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
Gong Yin quickly said: "You are meeting friends, wouldn't it be appropriate for me to go?"
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "It's okay. When you get to the place, just eat and don't worry about them."
